Which Should You Buy?
A warm, spicy explosion that's a crowd-pleaser for a reason. While its many flankers might vex some, the original Spicebomb is a reliably potent, compliment-getting winter warmer that'll stand strong in any smoky bar.
A sharp citrus and pink pepper burst opens onto cinnamon, saffron and chilli, then settles on leather and tobacco. A bold spicy scent for cool evenings.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and warm, spicy accords make it less suitable for the office. However, it's a stellar choice for dates and evening casual wear, as its seductive nature is often noted by wearers for bars and intimate settings. It leans too casual for formal events and is entirely unsuitable for sport.
Seasons
Cinnamon, saffron and tobacco feel at home in cool air and could be too heavy in heat. The citrus opening lets it work on crisp autumn days.
Occasions
A natural evening scent for dinners and nights out. It can work at the office in cold months with one or two sprays.
